My great, great grandfather lived in Doonan County Donegal in 1850. Doonan was a townland. Now I see it on a map situated near Donegal Town. Is it now a town?

Dear Cathy RC National School Teachers were educated at St. Patrick`s College, Drumcondra, Dublin; History of the College St Patrick`s College was established in 1875 to meet the teacher training needs of a denominational primary school system. The College was initially based at numbers 1 & 2 Drumcondra Road, moving to its present site at Belvedere House in 1883. During the Presidency of Fr. Peter Byrne CM, in the 1880s and 1890s, an extensive building programme was undertaken which, along with a second major phase of development completed in 1966 during the Presidency of Dr Donal Cregan C.M. and a third completed in 1982, still forms the core of the campus. The administration of the College was placed in the care of the Vincentian fathers where it remained until 1 September 1999. In 1999, the Vincentians withdrew from the management of the College. On 1 September, Dr Pauric Travers was appointed first lay President of the College The College quickly became and remains the alma mater for a large proportion of Irish primary teachers. Its graduates have made a distinguished contribution to the educational, social and cultural life of the country. Originally an all-male College, female students were admitted for the first time in 1971; they now constitute a large majority of the student population. If you correspond with the college you might get information about William James Lyons's birthplace. (William b 1856, would have been 19 years old when the college was established in 1875) I enquired by email to Theresa O`Farrell about my Uncle and made the request "I am interested in any details of my uncle James Martin who won a King's Scholarship to attended the College around 1917 for two years". the reply from the college was :- James Martin (Ref - 2(6)) Entered September 1915 Address: Bishopgate, Londonderry Age on 1 January 1916 - 18 and 8/12 (eight twelveths) Diocese - Derry Parish - Templemore He was a "Monitor" in St Columbas Boys School, and the P.P. was Rev Wm Doherty, St Columbas Presbetery, Derry. Contact address Theresa O`Farrell President`s Office St Patrick`s College Telephone - 01-8842006 Fax - 01-8367613 email - theresa.ofarrell@@spd.dcu.ie You didn't mention William's religion - there would have been a corresponding "Protestant" TT college. Also, the RC ladies could have been educated at Dowanhill Training College, Glasgow ( My RC cousin, Anne Reid b 1889 was educated there) Liam "A bird in the bush is worth two in the cat" ----- Original Message ----- From: "cathy hatcher" <cathhat@yahoo.com> To: <irl-co-donegal@rootsweb.com>; <DONEGALEIRE@rootsweb.com>; <IRL-DONEGAL@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, April 28, 2008 12:22 AM Subject: [DONEGALEIRE] William James Lyons, b. 1856, Co.

Hi Lister, Eva Gremmert posted a message about the O'Doherty Reunion in July which will feature two genealogy days. Unfortunately she did not say on which days the genealogy would feature but more details will follow later no doubt. Yours truly will be helping out on both days and also making available his recently printed free booklet - 10 Step Guide to Genealogy in Donegal. Hopefully the booklet will also be available soon on a well known website. Before that, the Derry Family History Centre is holding a "Roadshow" on the weekend of 19th-22nd June, which will consist of workshops, talks and individual tuition. Well worth a visit to the Racecourse Raod if you are in the vicinity. And also, on the same weekend, the East Donegal Ulster Scots will be running its Raphoe Festival, which, among other things, will include a coach tour of places of interest for those with an U-S family history. However, for me the highlight of the weekend will be another chance to see the amazing Kintra - a traditional music band which blends both traditional Irish and Ulster Scots music. If you haven't seen them before, have a look at the youtube webpage of their concert in Strabane: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=H17Hi42AA70 Boyd Gray http://familytrees.genopro.com/boydgray26/Boyd/default.htm

I am looking for a lead on possible place of birth and/or family connections for my great-grandfather, William James Lyons. For the 1901 and 1911 Ireland censuses, his place of birth is given as Co. Donegal. William married a Mary Frances Synnott from Co. Westmeath and they had their first child in 1880. They lived the bulk of their married life in the area of Clones, Clinoony, Drummully, and Clonfad in Co. Monaghan as National school teachers. William is buried in Co. Monaghan, died 19 Dec 1929 at age 73, which makes it likely he was born in 1856 or so. Thank you for any assistance you might be in this effort. I have done some successful research in other counties, but Donegal is new to me, and I appreciate any help you can offer.

Hi listers, I am sorry that the information about the O'Dochartaigh Reunion this coming July wasn't complete. I am grateful that Boyd pointed it out. I had in the message the list of events, but not the specific dates. The Genealogy and Historical workshops will be on Sat 5th July at the Inishowen Gateway Hotel in Buncrana beginning at noon. We will have classes on beginning Irish genealogy and computerize Genealogy at 11 am and 2 pm on Monday July 7th at the Tullyarvan Mill in Buncrana with an open meeting O'Dochartaigh Clann Genealogy Forum held that evening from 7 pm to 10 pm at the Ballyliffin Hotel in Ballyliffin. I hope that clarifies the events a little better. Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Egremmert@comcast.net Eva Doherty Gremmert
